I agree with Incognito's enthusiasm and grit. I don't care if Cogs is suspended for a game if he defends his teammates. At this point, I want to see if they're dedicated to the team and are there for each other. I wish we had an outbreak of that zeal on the Offensive side of the line. He has to learn to manage it as was said above, so the team doesn't suffer. I'll step up and say that I thought that Kyle Turly was the fire & desire we needed on the team, but he got injured and developed 'beef' with the HC. I had a huge amount of respect for Turley when I saw him take up for Brooks when that Defender tried to rip his head off. I want a teammate to fight with tooth and nail to protect his fellows, especially the QB. So, with that digression, I want to see the Offensive players protect Bulger. We don't see that now.

If I wanted to see a group of stoic, well-mannered, gentlemen on the field I would turn on the Golf Channel. I want to see some giddy-up and go from our team and it's not happening.

Did Linehan slow down this team too much? I'd rather see the Rams score 30-odd points and lose than see them get beat 15-0.

I know I'm all over the map with this. What can I say? I'm almost over it.
